Anderson, still in Las Vegas, opened with an overview of the latest on the shooting/massacre. Less than a minute after he started talking to Martin Savidge for more details, Anderson had to interrupt him and break away to the police press conference which just started. This was at :02 into the first hour.

I channel surfed and checked back to 360 occasionally. Besides Sheriff Lombardo, other people spoke. At :44 the press conference was still going on. At :47 Anderson was back.

A panel of Savidge, Phillip Mudd, Juliette Kayyem and Art Roderick discussed and analyzed the info given during the press conference. This continued to the end of the hour and slid into the second hour.

Thanks for the photos of Anderson and the therapy dog; they're adorable.

I DON'T BELIEVE IT. THE NRA SUPPORTS REGULATION ON "BUMP STOCKS." THE DEVICE THE GUNMAN USED TO CHANGE SEMI AUTOMATIC RIFLES INTO MACHINE GUNS....AND THE USE OF "BUMP STOCKS," UP UNTIL NOW IS CONSIDERED "LEGAL" THE INVESTIGATORS ARE STILL LOOKING FOR A MOTIVE. ACTUALLY, THE NRA AND THE GOP MADE IT REALLY EASY FOR THE GUNMAN TO NOT HAVE ONE. JUST BUY GUNS, THE MORE THE MERRIER, AND USE THEM TO YOUR HEARTS CONTENT.YES, THE PLANNING IS UNBELIEVABLE. HE HAD TO CROSS A FOUR LANE HIGHWAY TO HIT HIS TARGETS, BUT THAT WAS ALL PART OF HIS CHALLENGE. ACCORDING TO THE NYT, HE LIKED TO CHALLENGE HIMSELF AND HE WAS CONSIDERED JUST BENEATH THE HIGH ROLLER CLASSIFICATION. AND HE "EARNED HIS KEEP." HE GOT THE ROOM AT THE MANDOLIN HOTEL AND CASINO, FOR FREE! IT WAS ONE OF THEIR MANY PERKS FOR GAMBLERS WHO FREQUENTED THEIR SLOTS.LOVE THE PIX OF AC WITH THE THERAPY DOGS. THE DOG SEEMS TO COMFORT AC. IT MUST BE HARD TO GO FROM ONE KIND OF TRAGEDY TO ANOTHER. BUT THAN BOGUS DOES IT AND IT DIDN'T BOTHER HIM ONE BIT.

Anderson,This is the first time i have ever posted anything on a blog or for broad consumption on social media. I probably am on the opposite side of you on most every issue and viewpoint. But, I want to commend you for your dedicated focus on the victims of the Las Vegas shooting, and let you know that while we may differ in our views, I respect you very much and appreciate your dedication and your professionalism and your empathy that you bring to your profession. Thank you! As a fellow American, I applaud your empathetic and wise decision to focus on the exhaustive, but most lasting, essential, and enduring element of the news story.
